 PLEASE DONATE TO THE 2015-2016
        EL RODEO ANNUAL FUND!
      
 
 
A BIG THANK YOU TO ALL THE FAMILIES WHO HAVE DONATED TO THE ANNUAL FUND!  

Everyone at El Rodeo truly appreciates your generosity and the commitment you have demonstrated to our children and our school.
 
The Annual Fund Drive is El Rodeo's most important community-wide fundraising effort, and accounts for the largest percentage of our total fundraising budget . Every dollar you contribute will remain right here at El Rodeo and pays for the many fabulous school programs and services El Rodeo offers . No matter what grade your child is in, he/she will benefit from the wonderful and enriching extras the Annual Fund sponsors.  To donate, please complete and return the Annual Fund envelope that was mailed to your home (there are extra envelopes in the school office), or donate online by clicking the "donate now" icon above which will take you to the El Rodeo website. 
  
It's that simple! Everyone gives because everyone benefits!  Together, we can ensure our children continue to receive the best education possible!   
  
To find out how your child's specific grade benefits from the Annual Fund budget, or if you have any other questions about El Rodeo's Annual Fund Drive, please contact Mandy Katz at

HAVE YOU SUPPORTED  
THE EL RODEO ANNUAL FUND YET?
 
Please help El Rodeo by making an important investment in your child's education. The ER PTA plays a crucial role in funding by providing the financial means necessary to support a variety of academic enrichment programs that would not otherwise be available at our school. 
 
Thank you Mandy Katz for spearheading this drive!
 
WE CANNOT DO THIS WITHOUT YOUR HELP!
